stick 2 nuts on the end of the thread, lock them down,

then crack off the nut using the 2 locked nuts as a stop., then you should be able to spin  the other one off   :wink:

Has anyone else re-foamed the flaps in their air box?

I read a guide that the author said he used 'closed cell sticky neoprene'

Has anyone got any suggestions where I can get something suitable to fix my flaps?

Cheers
